《Grief Came Riding》歌词

[00:00:00] Grief Came Riding - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds (尼克·凯夫和坏种乐队)

[00:00:25] A grief came riding

[00:00:28] On the wind

[00:00:31] Up the sun on river Thames

[00:00:37] I was sitting on the bank with my mouth open

[00:00:42] When I felt it entering

[00:00:48] I began thinking about our wedding day

[00:00:54] And how love was a vow

[00:01:00] I was thinking about the chamber door

[00:01:04] Only we can enter now

[00:01:12] I began thinking about our ancient friends

[00:01:18] And of kissing them goodbye

[00:01:24] And then the wind blew under Battersea bridge

[00:01:28] And a tear broke from my eye

[00:01:35] I started thinking about London

[00:01:41] And nothing good ever came from this town

[00:01:47] And if the Thames weren't so filthy

[00:01:51] I would jump in the river and drown

[00:01:57] Don't be afraid

[00:02:00] Come on down

[00:02:03] I'm just sitting here

[00:02:06] Thinking loud

[00:02:14] A grief came riding

[00:02:17] On the wind

[00:02:19] Up the river where the bridges crouch

[00:02:25] Blowing people back and fall

[00:02:29] From the marital bed to the psychiatric couch

[00:02:37] Blowing people far apart

[00:02:43] Blowing others so they collide

[00:02:48] Blowing some poor bastard right out of the water

[00:02:53] Blowing another one over the side

[00:03:00] Hear the ancient iron bridge

[00:03:06] And listen to it groan

[00:03:12] With the weight of a thousand people

[00:03:17] Leaving or returning home

[00:03:23] To their failures

[00:03:26] To their bordoms

[00:03:29] To their husbands

[00:03:32] And their wifes

[00:03:35] Who are carving them up for dinner

[00:03:39] Before they even arrive

[00:03:44] Don't be afraid

[00:03:48] Come on down

[00:03:51] I'm just sitting here

[00:03:53] And thinking of love

[00:04:25] And look they just blow the water

[00:04:30] See the saviour of the human race

[00:04:36] Where the fishes and the frogs

[00:04:40] Has found his final resting place

[00:04:46] Don't be afraid

[00:04:49] Come on down

[00:04:52] I'm just sitting here

[00:04:55] Thinking of love
